      The holes in the carpet that you see toward the left side of the window is for a piece of all-thread that I use for mounting my night vision when hunting hogs! This is a small 4x4 blind that I have made pretty comfortable for long sits, changes made over many years.

          From experience, he's exactly right. I used pressure treated plywood, painted it really well twice (after it had dried out) and it still was the first thing to go; and only after about 3 seasons. This is 100% your Achilles heal. But overall looks really nice!!

            Man, it’s something I didn’t even think about during the build. Wonder if I can use some kind of sealant over it.
